Burton Method Snowboard - 09/10 - 2009

Life lessons from the wise, props.

They spend more in RnD then Most CO. do for their whole budget! I Think it shows in the progress of the ICS products.

I agree with Galen. I had the mindset for my first 9 years of riding that Burton was THE company and I'd never ride anything else. Then just for the hell of it this year I bought a Capita and absolutely love it. I'll still always have a Burton or two in my quiver, but there is some other good stuff out there.

you should try another board burton isnt the only company. im not saying theyre bad but serious

Where are you shredding? Valdez Alaska? cause that's the only place a board like this is going to do you any good. The guy below is 100% right, though maybe a bit harsh this board makes you look ridiculous.

Obviously you did not ride this board, cause if you did you would not be making those comments. This board is super quick, responsive and and carves like it is on rails. Why talk shit about something you know nothing about

hahaha jeremy man i have to agree.. i think i saw this guy in the woodshop with a sander..hahahha you guys that talk Burton down make me laugh. i bet you just put your bindings on the bottom and tried to ride the top of the board loser.. LMFAO

he musta sanded it n then hit the bunny hill er something if he owned it xD

hey guess what? you're dumb the base on this is a New Methlon N2O WFO Vision Base how can that be slow i am very confident in the fact that burton has tested this base and all their bases countless times if you want to shoot that down then fine but you look like a fool because you said it was "slow" thats like saying a Lamborghini is slow, you're an idiot go home man, go home

Another hater. I know this review is fake because he didn't say anything specific about the board. SLOW?? I haven't ridden this board specifically, but Burton makes the fastest boards on the market ans I'm sure this one is no exception. You're a terrible liar.

no way

Did you really have this board?

I agree, why hate on Burton dude, its personal preference. I have been riding 40+ days for for over 10 years all over the world and i bought this board for $750 slapped some CO2 EST bindings on it and i will guarantee if you see me on the mountain i will be hitting anything and everything. I think your generalizing when you make comments about people that are walking around with this board. I have ridden all makes and models over my years of riding and i have to say this board runs rings around every single one of them. I also have a Custom 151, for days in the pipe and park but to be honest this board in the pipe is insane. Burton are doing great things for the industry and they keep evolving. There are a lot of great manufactures out there and all offer something different, i guess you are just hating for the sake of it.

One more thing, about the private half pipe, ALL Red Bull, not Burton

I don't like people hating on Burton. Burton hasn't sold out, and has always been about making the best product. The reason this board is so expensive is because they so much time and money in research and development, it has to be. Plus, the people that ride this will be the ones doing heli trips in AK and NZ. And for the stuff that only fits burton, its because you wouldn't put a Bug engine in Ferrari. Its the same thing. It justs makes the stuff work all that much better with its own brand. And many companies are making disks that fit the channel, so that solves that problem. I haven't ridden this board either, but I sure as hell want to, and i bet it would be amazing

well unfortunatly i do have to agree on both sides.
it is probbly awsome ride but it way over priced for and thing and althoug i do rock some sweet berton binding and boot the a a big corp who is more into mony then any thing (the bussiness not the pple) like onley makeing boards that fit buertonstuff is kinda wrongin my opinyon so it goes both way but ther a re just as sick boards for cheaper capitaa and ride make some of my favorits and u wanna go a bit more thes lib tech and even k2 has the weapon so if u got the mony go for it but if ur not rollin in the benjimen try thos

You realize that burton is privately owned and not a corporation right? I will grant you that some stuff Burton does is ridiculous and a little uncalled for (2 $1000+ boads in production, private half-pipe for Shaun White, etc.)., but the hate is unnecessary. Burton is doing great things for the industry and advancing the tech that goes into the boards more than was thought possible 10 years ago (pressure distribution edges, The Park/Freestyle Scoop, multiple types of rocker, etc.). The list goes on and on. I personally don't ride Burton boards. It's just a matter of preference. One should choose his/her board by the feel and not by the brand. You don't have to ride Burton, but you should definitely respect the company and all they have done for the industry. Without companies like this, you would still be getting banned from resorts for riding a board.

haha, true, and either way. this board is like a test board, thats why it costs so much, they are just trying to find a way to make a board that is light and still good. and why spend money decorating boards you are going to test out, they will use the new tech on new boards that they actually sell publicly. but what do I know, i ride rome...

but this board deff isnt the greatest. go for the custom x or the vapor if your looking to be quick and hit some jumps. and the operator for a bit of jumps quickness and park. n if your a beginner, clash all the way. the brother of the clash is the bullet but its a piece of shit

i ride every day and burtons better than any board ive ever riden. the only bad board ive riden from them was the dominant and the bullet. otherwise every other board is amazing that ive rode.

im with you on this one, this guy is just all against burton i bet he never even rode this board, yes ok, i would never ride this because i have no decent sized mountains near by and im 16. BUT there are alot more ridiculous things on this earth than this, this board is simply showing the great potential that burton has reached in their board making, NO ONE is pointing a gun to your head and saying "buy it" its there if you want it but can be ignored if you don't basically dude you need to chill btw there is a reason that burton remains one of the top board company's for the simple reason that their stuff works and works very well

HATER! Do I detect some jealousy? This guy must work for a failing board company. This guy doesn't like burton. He didn't even ride the board.
